Darkfire will hand the scrolls and items over to Eliodos.
"It may be we can study this and find where this portal is to go to. For now I suggest we continue exploring this tower...we may find someone alive..."
We still have a locked door we couldn't open down here?
"Very well, if we are not to be charging head-first into certain danger for the time being, at least allow me to light the way as we ascend." Cailan holds his sword out in front of him and begins to climb the stairs, leaving Bucephalus snorting at the bottom.
Unfortunately Eliodos can't decipher where the scrolls would lead at the moment.
If the group heads toward the stairs, they find them to go an unnaturally long way up. Eventually, they end in a set of wooden double doors with silver linings with a padlock.
Jayce determines the door is safe and quickly picks the lock. A large bedroom with similar trim and design as the rest of the tower is within. There is a bed, a wardrobe, a footlocker, a mirror, and a desk with a single burning candle. A bundle of clothes is in the chair at the desk and a single raven looks at you.
Dust in the Wind steps forward and looks at the papers on the table. If these ravens were once the people who inhabited this tower, perhaps there was a clue among all these interrupted activities as to what happened here, and why.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Lowering his sword, Cailan approaches and tries to open (and search) the footlocker and wardrobe. "You think that the raven were once people? Interesting if so, I recall our message warning us to be wary of them."
Investigation (twice, if you want one for each 'container'): 9, 4
Dust in the Wind and Jayce look over the contents of the desk. Unfortunately almost everything has been covered with ink. There is part of a paper unsullied that has the note "... the dragon may have the power to help ..." written in Elvish. A wax seal with the same symbol as Nalfis's letter also sits on the desk.

Jayce looking around the room finds the footlocker and wardrobe to be full of fine clothes. Oddly hanging from nails in the inside of the wardrobe by strings are a portal carved from ivory, a small piece of polished marble, and a tiny silver spoon.
As Darkfire speaks and Eliodos runs in, he is rejected from the portal and just hits the wood of the cabinet. Moments later the spire lurches, it feels almost as if is being pulled slowly into the earth.

"They might 'a' gone there who's in get a hop?" Asks eliodos pointing at the circle.

The pendant doesn't seem to react in Jayce's hand.
(The portal room is the room beyond the locked door.)
Eliodos studies the scrolls trying to see if there's any clue about the planes they lead to 6
Assuming we are done with searching down here....Darkfire will suggest the stairs..

"If we can't get this open, I can fly to the balcony" nodding at the door and the padlock. "I noticed some silver marks along the balcony as well"
Jayce steps forward and examines the door and padlock for any traps. If there are no traps he will try to unlock it.

Darkfire
"Darkfire will approach the Raven. Are you Nalfis? Just peck once for Yes and two for no"
The vain eliodos checks himself in the mirror "let's see what this trip has done to me" noticing the raven "ow, one whom doesn't flee"
The raven stares at Darkfire blankly.
Eliodos's visage is somewhat dirtied by the trip but otherwise remains the same.
Looking closer to the table, there is a split ink bottle and some stray pieces of parchment are visible.
Dust in the Wind steps forward and looks at the papers on the table. If these ravens were once the people who inhabited this tower, perhaps there was a clue among all these interrupted activities as to what happened here, and why.

"The candle still burns.. This can't have happened too long ago."
Jayce searches the table and the parchments for any clues or notes. Hoping whoever this was would've tried to leave behind some valuable information.

Jayce looking around the room finds the footlocker and wardrobe to be full of fine clothes. Oddly hanging from nails in the inside of the wardrobe by strings are a portal carved from ivory, a small piece of polished marble, and a tiny silver spoon.
Eliodos looks at the portal made of ivory "is this his secret parties land?" And walks right in.
Darkfire will inspect the marble and spoon...

"Perhaps that is a bit hasty to run through this portal..."
As Darkfire speaks and Eliodos runs in, he is rejected from the portal and just hits the wood of the cabinet. Moments later the spire lurches, it feels almost as if is being pulled slowly into the earth.
